Revival

Sneaking back through the orchard's lonely trees
There's a place to call a friend and breathe
I search it through
How it seems that the fog is out to stay
And I wonder if the light will pierce the gray
Oh this love is a witness to revival
Couldn't bear just a lifetime of survival
How I wish you would stay
Even if this love is breaking down today
And though I pray
There's nothing I could do if you choose to go your way
There was a time when cathedral bells had died
Couldn't hear their tolls of sweetest chime
It served me right
And in the street as the beggar sang his song
Didn't take the time to stop and sing along
I wanna say I'm different now
I wanna say I'd help that man
I trust this is a better love
But am I a better man?
Oh this love is a witness to revival
Couldn't bear just a lifetime of survival
How I wish you would stay
Even if this love is breaking down today
And though I pray
There's nothing I could do if you choose to go your way

Walking out of town again
I gotta find a new place to hide
The caves are gushin' overhead
I know it's not the reason why
You had to hold me down
You had to pass me 'round
You didn't lead me out
You had to show me how
I guess I should've known the way
I walk it with you nearly every day
The possibility of death
The reigning light within your chest
A cold and damned parade
A holy place defaced
I guess I'll dress my best
Whatever to impress
I never wanted to be like the others
I only wanted to be of the source
I followed love as if it was the only one
In existence from the dawn of time
I know I gave everything I had
But never had much to give
I thought myself to be a flowing fountain
Saw too late that I was only drownin'

If I choose to stay here
Will it be compulsory?
Is the life that I cling to
Only making a wreck of me?
I know
It's calling to me
Silence and spaces and soul driven faces
Are calling to me
One thing is clear
It's understood
Silence and spaces and soul driven faces
Are calling to me
Crawling out from the cave there
Finally know what it's like to breathe
The freshest air of the valley
Climbing up in the softest trees
I know
It's calling to me
Silence and spaces and soul driven faces
Are calling to me
One thing is clear
It's understood
Silence and spaces and soul driven faces
Are calling to me
Soon you'll realize
All that they told you were lies
Then you can see through
The fog as the tears fill your eyes
Soon you'll realize
All that they told you were lies
Then you can see through
The fog as the tears fill your eyes
Soon you'll realize
All that they told you were lies
Then you can see through
The fog as the tears fill your eyes
Soon you'll realize
All that they told you were lies

I wanna love and I want it so bad
Only there to hear you say
"I want to love deep
In the purest way"
I want to love so I talk to you
Wonderin' how to make this new
Only know to say "I'm sorry"
I'm sorry
Ooh Lane
The ghost is rising out
I wanted you
To talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
To make this life into something so grand
Holding my hand, holding my hand
Never gonna forget
How you held my hand
And in my chest when I think of you
I get the warmest feeling welling up, welling up, welling up
Can't seem to give this up
Ooh Lane
The ghost is rising out
I wanted you
To talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
And what a shame
That I don't feel a thing
I tried with you
So talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
